Petrography of Yamato 984028 lherzolitic shergottite and its melt vein: Implications for its shock metamorphism and origin of the vein
Polar Science (Impact Factor: 0.95). 01/2011; 4(4). DOI: 10.1016/j.polar.2010.08.002
Yamato 984028 (Y984028) is a newly identified lherzolitic shergottite, recovered from the Yamato Mountains, Antarctica, in 1999. As part of a consortium study, we conducted petrographic observations of Y984028 and its melt vein in order to investigate its shock metamorphism. The rock displays the typical non-poikilitic texture of lherzolitic shergottite, characterized by a framework of olivine, minor pyroxene (pigeonite and augite), and interstitial maskelynite. Shock metamorphic features include irregular fractures in olivine and pyroxene, shock-induced twin-lamellae in pyroxene, and the complete conversion of plagioclase to maskelynite, features consistent with those found in other lherzolitic shergottites. The melt vein is composed of coarse mineral fragments (mainly olivine) entrained in a matrix of fine-grained euhedral olivine (with several modes of compositional zoning) and interstitial glassy material. Some coarse olivine fragments consist of an assemblage of fine-grained euhedral to subhedral olivine crystals, suggesting shock-induced fragmentation, recrystallization, and/or a process of sintering. The implication is that the fine-grained olivine crystals in the matrix of the melt vein represent complicated crystallization environments and histories.

Article: High-pressure phase relations in the system CaAl 4Si 2O 11–NaAl 3Si 3O 11 with implication for Na-rich CAS phase in shocked Martian meteorites[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: High-pressure phase relations in the system NaAl3Si3O11–CaAl4Si2O11 were examined at 13–23GPa and 1600–1900°C, using a multianvil apparatus. A Ca-aluminosilicate with CaAl4Si2O11 composition, designated CAS phase, is stable above about 13GPa at 1600°C. In the system NaAl3Si3O11–CaAl4Si2O11, the CAS phase dissolving NaAl3Si3O11 component coexists with jadeite, corundum and stishovite below 22GPa, above which the CAS phase coexists with Na-rich calcium ferrite, corundum and stishovite. At 1600°C, the solubility of NaAl3Si3O11 component in the CAS solid solution increases with increasing pressure up to about 50mol% at about 22GPa, above which the solubility decreases with pressure. The maximum solubility of NaAl3Si3O11 component in the CAS phase increases with temperature up to around 70mol% at 1900°C at 22GPa. The dissociation of NaAlSi2O6 jadeite to NaAlSiO4 calcium ferrite plus stishovite occurs at about 22GPa. Lattice parameters of the CAS phase with the hexagonal Ba-ferrite structure change with increase of the NaAl3Si3O11 component: a-axis decreases and c-axis slightly increases, resulting in decrease of molar volume. Enthalpies of the CAS solid solutions were measured by high-temperature drop-solution calorimetry techniques. The results show that enthalpy of hypothetical NaAl3Si3O11 CAS phase is much higher than the mixture of NaAlSi2O6 jadeite, corundum and stishovite and is close to that of the mixture of NaAlSiO4 calcium ferrite, corundum and stishovite. When we adopt the Na:Ca ratio of 75:25 of the natural Na-rich CAS phase in a shocked Martian meteorite, Zagami, the phase relations determined above suggest that the natural CAS phase crystallized from melt at pressure around 22GPa and temperature close to or higher than 2000–2200°C. The inferred P, T conditions are consistent with those estimated using other high-pressure minerals in the shocked meteorite.Earth and Planetary Science Letters 01/2010; 289(3):503-508.

Article: Localized shock melting in lherzolitic shergottite Northwest Africa 1950: Comarison with Allan Hills 77005[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Abstract— The lherzolitic Martian meteorite Northwest Africa (NWA) 1950 consists of two distinct zones: 1) low-Ca pyroxene poikilically enclosing cumulate olivine (Fo70–75) and chromite, and 2) areas interstitial to the oikocrysts comprised of maskelynite, low- and high-Ca pyroxene, cumulate olivine (Fo68–71) and chromite. Shock metamorphic effects, most likely associated with ejection from the Martian subsurface by large-scale impact, include mechanical deformation of host rock olivine and pyroxene, transformation of plagioclase to maskelynite, and localized melting (pockets and veins). These shock effects indicate that NWA 1950 experienced an equilibration shock pressure of 35–45 GPa. Large (millimeter-size) melt pockets have crystallized magnesian olivine (Fo78–87) and chromite, embedded in an Fe-rich, Al-poor basaltic to picro-basaltic glass. Within the melt pockets strong thermal gradients (minimum 1 °C/μm) existed at the onset of crystallization, giving rise to a heterogeneous distribution of nucleation sites, resulting in gradational textures of olivine and chromite. Dendritic and skeletal olivine, crystallized in the melt pocket center, has a nucleation density (1.0 × 103 crystals/mm2) that is two orders of magnitude lower than olivine euhedra near the melt margin (1.6 × 105 crystals/mm2). Based on petrography and minor element abundances, melt pocket formation occurred by in situ melting of host rock constituents by shock, as opposed to melt injected into the lherzolitic target. Despite a common origin, NWA 1950 is shocked to a lesser extent compared to Allan Hills (ALH) 77005 (45–55 GPa). Assuming ejection in a single shock event by spallation, this places NWA 1950 near to ALH 77005, but at a shallower depth within the Martian subsurface. Extensive shock melt networks, the interconnectivity between melt pockets, and the ubiquitous presence of highly vesiculated plagioclase glass in ALH 77005 suggests that this meteorite may be transitional between discreet shock melting and bulk rock melting.12/2006; 42(1):63 - 80.

Obama pushed to recast economic message
U.S. President Barack Obama speaks during a campaign event at the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia, Pa., on June 12, 2012. Ahead of what's billed as a major speech in Cleveland, democratic strategists want the president to change his message to acknowledge slow growth.
David Brancaccio: Today President Obama travels to Cleveland to deliver what's being a called major a speech on the economy. The president's been under pressure from Democrats to shake up his economic talking points, which they worry are falling flat with voters.
Marketplace's David Gura reports.
David Gura: Strategists are dusting off their old playbooks, giving President Obama tips on how to tailor his economic message. One camp wants more of this:
Phil Hartman, as Bill Clinton: I feel your pain.
That line defined Bill Clinton's '92 campaign, and it gave comedians like Phil Hartman fodder for years. Democratic strategist Kelly Bingel is in another camp.
Kelly Bingel: I think he should be focused more on optimism. I mean, I think we need a little of "Morning in America."
"Morning in America" ad: It's morning again, in America.
Like it's '84 again.
"Morning in America" ad: And under the leadership of President Reagan, our country is....
Democratic pollster Anna Greenberg says that, right now, President Obama's message is too diffuse, too focused on metrics -- like jobs numbers and the unemployment rate.
Anna Greenberg: We don't have kind of one narrative about the economy being articulated by either the campaign or the administration.
And while a slogan could help, Greenberg says what President Obama needs to do -- today, and right up until Election Day, is connect better with middle-class voters.
I'm David Gura for Marketplace.

Golden Windows
Expand Messages
- Golden Windows
by: Leo Hallan
There was a small boy living on a farm which seemed like so far away from every where. He needed to get up before sunrise every morning to start his chores and out again later to do the evening ones.
During sunrise he would take a break and climb up on the fence so in the distance he could see the house with golden windows. He thought how great it would be to live there and his mind would wander to imagine the modern equipment and appliances that might exist in the house. "If they could afford golden windows, then there must have other nice things." He then promised himself, "Some day I will go there and see this wonderful place."
Then one morning his father told him to stay at home and his father would do the chores. Knowing that this was his chance, he packed a sandwich and headed across the field towards the house with the golden windows.
As the afternoon went on, he began to realize how he misjudged the distance and something else was very wrong. As he approached the house, he saw no golden windows but instead a place with in bad need of a painting surrounded by a broken down fence. He went to the tattered screen door and knocked. A small boy very close to his age opened the door.
He asked him if he had seen the house with the golden windows. The boy said "Sure, I know." and invited him to sit on the porch. As he sat there, he looked back from where he just came where the sunset turned the windows on his home to Gold.

Is there a way to program using pure python in Xcode? I want something like the c++ command line utility except for python, I found a tutorial that did not work for me: (after playing around with which active architecture finally decided on i386) when trying to
print "Hello, World!" I get the following error "Data Formatters temporarily unavailable, will re-try after a 'continue'. (Cannot call into the loader at present, it is locked.)" (Using an intel Mac OS 10.6.4 and Xcode 3.2.3)
Here is how I followed the steps:
1) Opened Xcode went to File -> New Project
2) Selected from 'Other', 'Empty Project'
3) Named it 'PyProject' in a local directory on my computer
4) Went to File -> New File
5) From 'Pure Python' I selected 'Python tool', named it main.py then clicked finish
6) Added
print ('Hello, World!') to the file, and saved the file
7) Went to Project -> New Custom Executable
8) Named it PyExecutable, gave it path" /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/bin/python" and added it to project PyProject, then clicked Finish
9) Double-clicked PyExecutable in PyProject window
10) Went to Arguments and added the path of my main.py file "/Users/jordan/PyProject/main.py"
11) Switched Active Architecture from the pull down menu at the top of the PyProject window to i386 (Now is in Debug, No Active Target, PyExecutable Is Active Executable and Architecture is i386)(If I don't switch the architecture and leave it on default x86_64 I get this error as a pop-up "The active architecture x86_64 is not present in the executable 'PyExecutable' which contains ppc/i386")
12) Clicked Run -> Run and then I get the error listed above in the console
Before anyone suggests it: I know Xcode is not the best option for pure python please do not suggest that I use another text editor.
Edit: details of what was not working when following the tutorial
Edit: my system details were added, and the steps I followed to get the error
Update: I wrapped the path of main.py in double quotes
"" and now when I press continue after the error the console prints hello world, but I get the same error originally.

Eliot Spitzer's Liason To The Hooker World Announces Plan To Run For Mayor Of New York
Earlier this month, the Times reported that Mayor Bloomberg and his advisers had been "floating the possibility of mayoral runs to at least five boldface figures," including Chuck Schumer, Mort Zuckerman, Ed Rendell, Edward Skyler, and Hillary Clinton.

Meghna Patel strips for Modi
Zee Media Bureau/ Aparna Mudi
New Delhi: Prime Ministerial candidate Narendra Modi is getting support from unusual quarters all over India, and in unusual ways too. After a a heartfelt birthday message from Mallika Sherawat, now Modi has actress Meghna Patel stripping for him.
A picture of Meghna Patel has gone viral on popular micro-blogging site Twitter, where she is nude and holds up a picture to support Modi. There is a separate picture of her lying on a bed of lotuses holding onto a a Narendra Modi poster.
According to media reports Meghna says, "Narendra Modi is the man of today. He is the embodiment of valour who lives in the hearts of millions of people."
She added, "Narendra Modi is a person of great prominence on India`s political landscape and has done great works for development and prosperity in his state and now he is the prime ministerial candidate. People will vote for him to make India better in the 21st century. We all love you, Mr Modi."
Meghna Patel was a television actress who acted in a popular serial called `Chandrakanta`. She is also reportedly going to star in a regional film.
Now whether it is a publicity gimmick by the actress and whether it will be acceptable by the BJP supporters or not remains a mystery.

WD-40 is the trademark name of a penetrating oil and water-displacing spray. The spray is produced by San Diego, CA-based WD-40 Company.[1]
WD-40 was developed in 1953 by Norm Larsen,[2] founder of the Rocket Chemical Company, in San Diego, California. WD-40, abbreviated from the phrase "Water Displacement, 40th formula", indicating it was the 40th formula the chemists tried before finding success.[1] The product was originally designed to repel water and prevent corrosion on the Atlas space rocket, and later was found to have numerous household uses.[1]
Larsen was attempting to create a formula to prevent corrosion in nuclear missiles, by displacing the standing water that causes it. He claims he arrived at a successful formula on his 40th attempt.[3] WD-40 is primarily composed of various hydrocarbons.
WD-40 was first used by Convair to protect the outer skin and, more importantly, the paper-thin balloon tanks of the Atlas missile from rust and corrosion.[3][4] These stainless steel fuel tanks were so thin that, when empty, they had to be kept inflated with nitrogen gas to prevent their collapse.
WD-40 first became commercially available on store shelves in San Diego, California in 1958.[3]
The long-term active ingredient is a non-volatile, viscous oil which remains on the surface, providing lubrication and protection from moisture.[5] This is diluted with a volatile hydrocarbon to give a low viscosity fluid which can be sprayed and thus penetrate crevices. The volatile hydrocarbon then evaporates, leaving the oil behind. A propellant (originally a low-molecular-weight hydrocarbon, now carbon dioxide) provides gas pressure in the can to force the liquid through the spray nozzle, then evaporates away.
These properties make the product useful in both home and commercial fields; removing dirt and residue, and extricating stuck screws and bolts are common usages, and it also loosens stubborn zippers. It is also useful in displacing moisture.
Due to its lightness (i.e., low viscosity), WD-40 is not always the preferred oil for certain applications. Applications that require higher viscosity oils may use motor oils, while those requiring a mid-range oil could use honing oil.[6]
WD-40's formula is a trade secret. The product was not patented in 1953 to avoid disclosing the details of its composition; the window of opportunity for patenting the product has long since closed.[4][7] WD-40's main ingredients as supplied in aerosol cans, according to U.S. Material Safety Data Sheet information, are:
- 50% "aliphatic hydrocarbons". The manufacturer's website specifically claims that this fraction in the current formulation cannot be accurately referred to as Stoddard solvent, a similar mixture of hydrocarbons.[8]
- <25% petroleum base oil, presumably a mineral oil or light lubricating oil.
- 12-18% low vapor pressure aliphatic hydrocarbon, to reduce the viscosity for use in aerosols. This fraction evaporates during application.
- 2-3% carbon dioxide, presumably as a propellant, is now used instead of liquefied petroleum gas to reduce WD-40's considerable flammability.
- <10% inert ingredients.
The German version of the mandatory EU safety sheet lists the following safety-relevant ingredients:
- 60–80% heavy naphtha (a petroleum product used e.g. in wick type cigarette lighters), hydrogen treated
- 1–5% carbon dioxide
It further lists flammability and effects to the human skin when repeatedly exposed to WD-40 as risks when using WD-40. Nitrile rubber gloves and safety glasses should be used. (Ordinary rubber is ruined by repeated exposure to petroleum products.) Water is unsuitable for extinguishing burning WD-40.
Wired published an article giving the result of gas chromatography and mass spectroscopy, claiming that its ingredients also make it resistant to freezing.[9]

Listen: Kelly Clarkson's new single, 'Mr. Know It All'
Kelly Clarkson debuted "Mr. Know It All" today during a live stream on her website and all we have to say is Beyonce better watch out.
The tune is a switch up for Clarkson: there's no belting, not rocking guitars. It's a straight-ahead, sassy, soul-tinged mid-tempo pop tune about a man who she's sending packing. It would have sounded perfectly in place on Beyonce's "4"; in fact some of Clarkson's phrasing even recalls Beyonce. There are no vocal pyrotechnics, but it has a solid, catchy feel.
"Mr. Know It All" is also a big loser because he's made our Kelly sad, but she's having none of it: "Mr. Bring Me Down, well you like to bring Me Down, but I ain't laying down, I ain't going down... you think you know me/know me, that's why I'm leaving you lonely/lonely, because you don't know a thing about it."
There's a nice slowed-down bridge and backing vocals, done by Clarkson, to give the song a slight retro feel.
[More after the jump...]
It's the first single from the American Idol's fifth album, "Stronger," out Oct. 25. The single is available for download starting Sept. 5. She already shot the video in Nashville with director Justin Francis, but wouldn't reveal any other details.
An adorably nervous Clarkson introduced the single and then started answering questions from fans on her iPad. She said the album's influences include Prince, Tina Turner and Sheryl Crow. "There's [also] some stuff on there that sounds very country influenced, the writing style, even the delivery of it... it's like my tour, i kind of go through a lot of different genres, but it all ties in."
Not included on the album is a duet she and fellow former "Idol" Chris Daughtry wanted to cut. "We had a great song for this album, but it didn't fit," she said. "I love Chris, so one day we are going to get a song together and please a lot of fans and ourselves because we enjoy each other's music and each other." Clarkson said there is a duet on the album with another female singer, but she wouldn't reveal who made the cut, other than hinting, "she is somewhat affiliated with 'American Idol'."
Despite declaring that she'd need to have a host next time, she did great... until the feed went dark. Here are some fun tidbits from the live Q&A:
Why is Mr. Know It All the first single: "We picked 'Mr. Know It All' because it was unlike any other song that we've ever come out with. we usually go with that guitar driven anthem song. It sets up the album nicely.
Why is the album called "Stronger": "I ended up naming the album 'Stronger,' namely bcause the album is about empowerment and strength overall. I love being sassy, having overall attitude. Raining on boys' parades.
Touring plans: Expect a tour early next year after Clarkson's finished her promo tour. The band is already rehearsing.
How is "Stronger" different from her previous albums: "This album is vocally different from all the other albums. Every producer captured how I sound live even more so than the previous album... With pop music things can sound highly compressed or autotuned...[this is] how I sound live."
Whom would she like to duet with? "There's a lot of people I'd like to do a duet with," she said before noting that there are two in her immediate sights: "I'm going to wear them down until they get in the studio with me. I'm a huge fan of Adele and Miranda Lambert. If I have to be a huge stalker fan to get them to do it, I will do it.
Is she mad about the leaks from the album earlier this year: "I'm not so mad about the leaks as it just kind of spoils of the fun, but I get it. If I could listen to stuff before it comes out, I'd do it, but it spoils the fun."
Her songwriting contributions to "Stronger": I wrote half this album. I didn't plan to do that. We had a lot of great songs from a lot of great writers. I'd never want to write the whole album myself. I feel like that would be the same song 12 times. I would never have written 'Mr. Know It All' or 'What Doesn't Kill You'," she said, referencing the song from which the album title is derived. "I think it's awesome to pick a song that I can relate to and wish that I could have written."
Other tidbits: Her favorite song to do live is "Walk Away."
" I feel like I'm Annie Lennox when I do it. It's just a big, ballsy-girl song....Her favorite TV show is "The Closer"...Her celebrity crush is "Friday Night Light"/"Super 8" star Kyle Chander. "He's so hot, if he weren't married, I might stalk him. If you know anyone who looks like him, send him my way"...On her days off, she likes to enjoy a "drink or two or three" with friends and can sometimes be found performing karaoke at Larry's Lounge in Nashville. Fans are welcome to join her there.

Gin Blossoms to rock Apple Store SoHo tonightAn alternative rock band popular in the 1990s has recently reunited and will swing by Apple Computer's retail store in downtown Manhattan this evening to play a one hour set.
Apple's flagship store in SoHo will be closing its second-floor Genius Bar at 7:00 p.m. to prepare for a special performance by the Gin Blossom, which is due to take place between 8:00 to 9:00 pm.
The Tempe, Arizona-based band released three albums and had several Billboard Top 25 hits, including "Hey Jealousy," "Found Out About You," and "Til I Hear It From You," before breaking up in 1997.
After reuniting in 2002, the group began work on their fourth album, "Major Lodge Victory", which was released about three weeks ago.
Apple's flagship location on Fifth Avenue, just a few minutes north of the SoHo store, is also a frequent host of music events. The 24-hour store earlier this month hosted a live Midnight Mix by Ali Shaheed, a popular DJ from the musical group A Tribe Called Quest.

June 6, 2012 12:08 by Reuters
Qatar Telecom (Qtel) has agreed to double its stake in Iraq's No. 2 operator Asiacell to 60 percent for $1.47 billion as it seeks to exploit rising demand for broadband.
Qtel will initially raise its stake to 53.9 percent from 30 percent, with a further increase pending Iraqi government and regulatory approval, the company said in an emailed statement.
Iraq's Farouk Group Holding, which owns 51 percent of Asiacell, and private equity firm MerchantBridge, owners of 19 percent, have agreed to sell stakes to Qtel, two sources familiar with the matter told Reuters.
Qtel declined to identify the sellers, but the sources said Morgan Stanley had advised Qtel and Credit Suisse had advised MerchantBridge.
"The Iraqi market is about to enter a period of rapid broadband and data growth," Qtel Chairman Sheikh Abdullah Al-Thani said in the statement.
"This acquisition is in line with our long-term strategy…through which we seek to increase our ownership in companies with significant potential."
Asiacell provided about a fifth of Qtel's revenue in the first quarter, while Iraq's mobile operators have yet to launch 3G services and fixed-line broadband infrastructure is in its infancy.
Asiacell has a 38 percent share of Iraq's mobile subscribers, according to rival Zain's 2011 annual report. Zain's Iraqi unit is the market leader with 53 percent of subscribers, while France Telecom affiliate Korek has 9 percent.
The three operators were awarded 15-year mobile licences in 2007. These licences required them to launch initial public offerings to sell 25 percent of their shares by the end of August 2011, but all three have yet to do so, saying the fledgling Iraqi bourse is ill-prepared.
"We continue to work hard on preparing for Asiacell's landmark IPO planned for later this year," Sheikh Abdullah added.
Qtel will finance the acquisition from existing funds. In May, sources told Reuters the operator had asked banks for proposals about a $1 billion commercial paper programme.
Qtel owns majority stakes in Oman's Nawras and Kuwait's Wataniya.

New York Giants 2014 Season Recap
The New York Football Giants finished the 2014 season with a 6-10 record. For the third straight year, Big Blue missed the playoffs and finished the season with a losing record for the second year in a row. Owner John Mara called finishing 6-10, "an embarrassment". New York has seen that winning a Super Bowl is not easy, but you need to qualify for the playoffs before you win a Super Bowl. The playoff drought has fans and management searching for answers. However, one answer that the Giants believe they have figured out is at head coach.

NFL Friday - Wild Card Weekend
Hidden Talent at the Orange Bowl
On the eve of both the new year and the first college football playoff games, the Capital One Orange Bowl saw 7th ranked Mississippi State and 12th ranked Georgia Tech battle to end their seasons with a win. While the pre-game hype centered largely on Mississippi State star quarterback Dak Prescott, who finished eighth in Heisman voting, his top receiving target, De'Runnya Wilson, found himself under the radar.
Boca Raton Bowl: The Story Behind the Game
The inaugural Boca Raton Bowl was an exciting and high scoring battle that saw a kickoff returned for a touchdown, five total touchdowns accounted for by quarterback Rakeem Cato and a historic 18-catch performance by Marshall receiver Tommy Shuler in a resounding 52-23 victory for the Thundering Herd. However, the bowl did not begin with the teams storming onto the field to the cheers of the thousands of fans, nor with the opening kickoff. Rather, the game itself was the final stage of months of preparation by both the city of Boca Raton and ESPN.

Singing for the Pope is a once-in-a-lifetime experience – though sometimes, it happens twice. "I can't say it was my first time singing for a pope," admits Salvatore Diana.

At GDC, Sony officially unveiled Plastic Studios' Datura, a Move-based adventure game that puts you in control of a spooky floating hand in a richly detailed forest. I had the opportunity to move through the forest, touch trees, and crack ice, but you need this video from PlayStation Blog to help understand the oddity of Datura.
Datura seems to trade adventure game logic for dream logic, and gives you bizarre choices that result in unexpected effects. For example, picking up an icepick (in a hollowed out statue) transports you instantly to an ice field, where you must decide whether to get a trophy -- or a frantic person -- out of the ice. Seemed like an easy choice for me, but apparently not everybody does the same thing. Your actions result in alterations to the main forest environment, which may include ... different insects? Told you it was odd.

A happy reminder that my daughter is not me.
A happy reminder that my daughter is not me.
I grew up in a family with a strong work ethic. You couldn't read the comics until you finished the world news first. Sitting to do anything other than read something educational or literary wasn't acceptable. We were made to feel guilty for every minute we wasted.
Since childhood, I've tried to counteract this teaching. No matter how good parenting is, kids will always be trying to shake off whatever form of oppression they felt though the misfortune of just being born to these particular people. These days, I'm trying to play without thinking about work. I'm trying to just (Read more…)
My daughter is worried about it. She just turned 11. She's been sick from the heat a couple times because she wears jeans everywhere. It's a problem. I told a friend my concerns, and he advised me to ban the internet. But all she looks at on there is Heartland shows and facts about horses. When he drops by he sometimes announces, in a celebratory manner, how much weight his sister or mom lost recently, and when he stayed with us a while, I used to have a "no calorie counting at the dinner table rule." He doesn't think (Read more…)
Professor Edward Schlosser wrote an interesting piece in Vox about, in part, the power his students have to call the shots these days. I can attest that it's at best, defeating, and at worst, absolutely terrifying.
First of all, to clarify, my students are typically a delight, but the current system is fostering behaviours that are a serious concern.
I have had some students, 15-19, insist that we have to do something fun on their birthdays. When I rejected their proposals, it might take several days of arguing at the start of each class before I can convince them it's (Read more…)
For the last eight years every working day our daughter Mallory has been in the care and tutelage of the teachers at Glebe Parents Day Care. I still remember those days in July 2007 when I took Mallory to the toddler room at the main centre for her integration week. I was far more freaked … Continue reading Handed in our notice at the day care →
This actually happened Monday, but things were too squirrelly to note it then. However I cannot let this even go unmarked. Lately she's been walking to school with her next door neighbour and friend C. Which has been great – school is not far, there's a crossing guard and C. is older by a couple … Continue reading First solo walk to school →
Almost a decade. I take a lot of photos of Mallory. And each in each one I see a child who is so grown up. It's always been like that. One year old Mallory looked "so grown up" – no more infant eyes. All alert and vocalizing. Newly walking. Four year old Mallory looked 'so … Continue reading Nine →

Christy's Houseful of Chaos » politics: How does one homeschool, with all the intensity that involves, and be a compassionate, informed person at the same time?
Sometimes it is really hard to keep balance. How does one balance parenting with everything else? I don't want to undervalue my husband's contribution to our family life – his is amazing – but I suspect I'm the support pole the children lean on and there are times when the burden of having them lean on me feels to tough. I feel all hollow and empty and like I have nothing to give them and then I'm so keenly aware of them pulling on me, talking to me, seeking approval and asking for attention and I don't know what to (Read more…)
The latest flap over sexist comments from Justice Minister Peter Mackay came about when a Mother's and Father's Day emails from Peter Mackay to his staff were leaked to the media. The comparison isn't pretty: put side to side it makes it seems like mothers should be applauded for doing housework like changing diapers and making dinners while fathers are praised for moulding, guiding and influencing their children. Sigh.
That the comparison is clearly sexist shouldn't exactly be controversial to most readers of this blog, but the blame game is a little less straight forward. Let's get a few things (Read more…)
I daily marvel at my daughter. I expect I'm like most parents. But I often get caught in the mental rut of baby parenting, despite the fact that Mallory's eight. The baby parenting rut assumes the child is totally incapable of almost everything. But every now and again Mallory does something (or several things) to […]
It's always harder to have something taken away than to never have it in the first place. But still…
A local high school is removing a few dozen students from the school bus route because the board realized the kids are within official walking distance to the school – 3.2 km. Families are upset because they can't afford the bus fare, their teenagers can't be expected to walk that far, and, during a couple weeks of December and January, the sun will be just about to rise when they embark on their morning trek. One parent commented in The (Read more…)
Valentine's Day is one of those weird non-holiday holidays. There's issues with the ethics of cut flowers and a need to buy ethical fair-trade organic chocolate. There are those who complain about it making single people feel bad and others who say its all just a marketing scam. Yet this year, despite the strangeness, I'm drawn to the idea of Valentine's Day.
See the 14th isn't just Valentine's Day. In Canada it's the day of the missing women memorial march remembering native women who have been murdered and/or trafficked. In other countries it is the day for One Billion Rising, (Read more…)
Balance beam. As the family photographer it fell to me to attend Mallory's last gymnastics class. She had an ear to ear grin on during the entire class. Except when she was really focussed. Of all the activities we put her through this is clearly her favourite.
It`s TED Talk Tuesday on 350orbust. Marianne Williamson, an internationally acclaimed spiritual teacher and New York Times bestselling author, spoke at TEDx Traverse City earlier this year. I love that she`s running for Congress in 2014; she could be a game-changer. *
So today marked the finale of a two year campaign to re-design, re-engineer and re-everything the flagship website where I work. And after the most excruciating day of bickering about DNS changes, being incredulous about block translation bugs, and general angst, this was waiting for me at home. My heart melted.
It's an interesting moral dilemma to have a judge decide a child has access to a father when the only contact the mother and father had was a sexual assault producing this child. This isn't entirely the story here. In this article, it could be a case of statutory rape. It's possible there was a relationship for a while, that led to vocally consensual, yet not actually legal, sex. It's not clear from the article if it was a guy jumping out of the bushes or a romantic tryst gone wrong or something in between.
The young mother, H.T. (Read more…)
Sure, some are responding to the Fraser Institute's "study" on the costs of child-rearing with mockery and/or outrage. But in fairness, let's acknowledge that the study's validity simply depends on the accuracy of its assumptions, which may well vary from parent to parent.
And given Christopher Sarlo's reliance on children costing precisely zero in housing, furniture and care expenses, it could be that he's found a highly profitable enterprise for anybody who sees this as a model for a happy and healthy family:
People are always looking for the single magic bullet that will change everything. There is no single magic bullet. - Temple Grandin
Some people are quite upset about the recent change to the DSM that removes Aspergers as a separate category from Autism. Now kids formally diagnosed as having Aspergers are on the Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) instead. The WHO advocates using the ICD anyway – where Aspergers is still a separate category; the DSM is more American than universal. Whatever. I'm more bothered by how the DSM and ICD are set up to begin with.
Why do we want (Read more…)

Warning: braggy parent post trigger warning. At least I can promise I will keep it short. I wanted to mark the occasion. Mallory read ten pages of Charlotte's Web to Irene and I tonight. We were coaching her a bit but she was doing it.
Mallory said this to me after we got back from her Oma and Opa's place this afternoon. Don't know what she was thinking of but I thought of her going over the jump Irene made for her on the hill in Opa and Oma's back yard.
Mallory was in the cookie race again. No idea how she finished overall but she headed out strongly. I saw here smoke someone else from her heat climbing the hill and she tells me she came in second of all the girls she started with.

In continuing with her trend of End Times theorizing, former Republican Minnesota Congresswoman Michele Bachmann opined over the weekend that thanks to Planned Parenthood and the legalization of gay marriage, God may soon engulf the United States with fire and brimstone just like he did the biblical towns of Sodom and Gomorrah.
Bachmann, who is a frequent guest on the "Understanding the Times with Jan Markell" radio program, was again a guest to the program last weekend and reasoned that given Iran's desire for "nuclear destruction" and the social direction of America, the apocalyptic "season is approaching."
The 59-year-old criticized pastors throughout the country for not educating their congregants about the biblical significance of the days in which we are living in, suggesting that "no one is fighting back against Barack Obama's dangerous policies" that are "pointing America in severe decline." more >>
WASHINGTON – As Pope Francis delivered the first-ever papal address to a joint session of Congress Thursday, Catholics who gathered on the Capitol lawn praised the content of the pontiff's speech, while Sen. James Lankford, R-Oklahoma, expressed disappointment that the pope did not explicitly condemn abortion.
In an interview with The Christian Post, Lankford, a former Baptist youth leader who attended the joint session, said that Pope Francis missed a golden opportunity to discuss the Catholic Church's historic opposition to the killing of unborn children at a time when the federal funding of Planned Parenthood is being hotly contested in the United States.
In his 50-minute address, Francis asserted that the "Golden Rule reminds us of our responsibility to protect and defend human life at every stage of its development." Although that line is generally used in relation to abortion and caring for the elderly and sick, Pope Francis used the line as a segway to argue for the global abolition of the death penalty. more >>
Salem Lutheran Church of Austin, Texas, a congregation long-known for its emphasis on inclusiveness regarding its worshipers, was abuzz with excitement over some unwanted guests.
A member of the theologically liberal Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, Salem's website includes a lengthy welcome statement for "all national backgrounds, all economic levels, all educational levels, all gender identities, all sexual orientations, all political leanings, all differently-abled people in mind and in body," among others.
But when it comes to those who inhabit its edifice, Salem Lutheran recently had to draw the line. In September, church leadership decided to remove approximately one million bees from within the structure. more >>
WASHINGTON — In the first ever papal address issued to a joint session of the U.S. Congress on Thursday, Pope Francis urged Americans to share their wealth, stand up against religious and minority persecution, defend life at every stage of development, welcome immigrants seeking better lives, abolish the death penalty and protect the planet.
After meeting with Speaker of the House John Boehner, R-Ohio, in his office around 9:15 a.m., the leader of the Catholic Church addressed members of the House and Senate with a 50-minute speech that was broadcasted and shown to approximately 50,000 adoring fans who gathered on the front lawn of the Capitol building to hear his historic remarks.
"Each son or daughter of a given country has a mission, a personal and social responsibility," Pope Francis, who hails from Argentina, asserted. "A political society endures when it seeks, as a vocation, to satisfy common needs by stimulating the growth of all its members, especially those in situations of greater vulnerability or risk. Legislative activity is always based on care for the people. To this you have been invited, called and convened by those who elected you." more >>
A Muslim can be president, Republican presidential candidate and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee said, but he is more concerned about the authenticity of President Barack Obama's Christian faith.
In an interview Tuesday with Newsmax TV's Ed Berliner, Huckabee was asked what he thought of the comments made on Sunday by Republican presidential candidate Dr. Ben Carson, who stated that he would not support a Muslim president.
"There is no religious test to hold public office in America," Huckabee responded. "I am less concerned about what faith a person has. I am more concerned about the authenticity of their faith, and how that plays out in their policies." more >>
In 2014, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers chided Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson for surmising that God has a hand in the outcome of NFL games, and Rodgers revisited that point after Sunday's game.
"I think God was a Packers fan tonight, so he was taking care of us," Rodgers quipped after the Packers defeated the Seahawks 27-17.
When the Seahawks beat the Packers in the NFC Championship last January, Wilson suggested God was behind the victory. Although both quarterbacks are Christians, Rodgers had a completely different perspective on the matter. more >>

A tale of the prospectors of the starways--of dangers--
ing bolt in his direction. He felt the fierce heat of it as it whizzed past his shoulder; in his brain Digger's thoughts of attack came to him, he flung an arm around the spacehound, dragged it back as he withdrew toward the door. The girl continued to fire bolt after bolt straight ahead, her eyes wide and staring.
They made the door, waited outside while the firing within continued. When at last it was still within, he peered around the corner of the room. She lay in a crumpled heap in the corner; quietly he re-entered, picked her up awkwardly. Through the thin, resistant folds of the spacesuit, he could feel the warmth of her, but could not tell whether the heart still beat or not. They would have to take her to one of the ships.
Her limp form was held tightly under his good arm as Nat hurried down the main tunnel. Digger apparently realized the seriousness of the situation, for he received impressions of "must hurry" from the beast and another creature, looking much like him, surrounded by sm
A story of ideas and of a gradually-revealed plot, it is interesting enough as you read it. Once done, all the "Hey, what about the . . ." and "It just happened to be pointing the right direction?" stuff comes up.
Not a great story, just a pulp space adventure tale, with a girl needing to be rescued.
The Beast of Space has an interesting premise ... that something may have evolved on the larger asteroids. Something that is also sentient and knows how to attract spaceships--and the tasty morsels that operate it.
Of course, we have no idea what the thing lived on before humanity went into space, but this story doesn't survive an indepth analysis.
